“We are all worth fighting for” is the theme for Sense8‘s Season 2 trailer, in which a war is quickly and intensely brewing.

Arriving Friday, May 5, the Netflix drama’s sophomore run picks up where Season 1 left off, with Capheus (played by Toby Onwumere), Kala (Tina Desai), Lito (Miguel Angel Silvestre), Nomi (Jamie Clayton), Riley (Tuppence Middleton), Sun (Donna Bae), Will (Brian J. Smith) and Wolfgang (Max Riemelt) coming together both physically and mentally, as they are plunged into the middle of each other’s tragedies and triumphs.

On the run from Whispers (Terrence Mann) — or will it be the other way around? — and forced to question their very identity, it’s a matter of survival as the Sensates must find a way to live with, understand and protect one another against all odds.
